7:50 a.m. update: Cramming up on 35W, Hwy. 36

A stalled vehicle on northbound 35W at 35th Street is creating havoc for commuters. A jam has formed at 42nd Street and remains in place to downtown Minneapolis. It's 10 minutes and rising from Crosstown to downtown.

Look for things to go south in a hurry. A new disabled vehicle is blocking the center lane of northbound 35W at 50th Street.

Look for westbound Hwy. 36 to cram from Dale Street to 35W. That is now at 12 minutes.

Eastbound 394 has pockets of slow and go traffic from Hwy. 169 to downtown Minneapolis.

In addition to the third straight weekend closure of Interstate 94 in downtown Minneapolis, MnDOT will demolish the flyover bridge from northbound Interstate 35W to westbound Interstate 94. It will be closed until 2021.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation is reminding anglers heading to this weekend's fishing opener to plan ahead and leave plenty of time to get to their destination. The advice holds true for motorists traveling in downtown Minneapolis where two freeways will be closed.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation will shut the freeway down between Interstates 394 and 35W for the next three weekends to allow crews refurbish the Irene Hixon Whitney pedestrian bridge spanning I-94 and connecting the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden and Loring Park.
